诀窍是通过引用传递源数组和目标数组。

function flatten_array(&$arr, &$dst) {
    if(!isset($dst) || !is_array($dst)) {
        $dst = array();
    }
    if(!is_array($arr)) {
        $dst[] = $arr;
    } else {
        foreach($arr as &$subject) {
            flatten_array($subject, $dst);
        }
    }
}

$recursive = array('1', array('2','3',array('4',array('5','6')),'7',array(array(array('8'),'9'),'10')));
echo "Recursive: \r\n";
print_r($recursive);
$flat = null;
flatten_array($recursive, $flat);

echo "Flat: \r\n";
print_r($flat);

// If you change line 3 to $dst[] = &$arr; , you won't waste memory,
// since all you're doing is copying references, and imploding the array 
// into a string will be both memory efficient and fast:)

echo "String:\r\n";
echo implode(',',$flat);

如果你有一个对象数组，想用一个节点把它压平，只需要使用这个函数:

function objectArray_flatten($array,$childField) {
    $result = array();
    foreach ($array as $node)
    {
        $result[] = $node;
        if(isset($node->$childField))
        {
            $result = array_merge(
                $result, 
                objectArray_flatten($node->$childField,$childField)
            );
            unset($node->$childField);
        }

    }
    return $result;
}

试试下面这个简单的函数:

function _flatten_array($arr) {
  while ($arr) {
    list($key, $value) = each($arr); 
    is_array($value) ? $arr = $value : $out[$key] = $value;
    unset($arr[$key]);
  }
  return (array)$out;
}

所以从这里:

array (
  'und' => 
  array (
    'profiles' => 
    array (
      0 => 
      array (
        'commerce_customer_address' => 
        array (
          'und' => 
          array (
            0 => 
            array (
              'first_name' => 'First name',
              'last_name' => 'Last name',
              'thoroughfare' => 'Address 1',
              'premise' => 'Address 2',
              'locality' => 'Town/City',
              'administrative_area' => 'County',
              'postal_code' => 'Postcode',
            ),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    ),
  ),
)

你会得到:

array (
  'first_name' => 'First name',
  'last_name' => 'Last name',
  'thoroughfare' => 'Address 1',
  'premise' => 'Address 2',
  'locality' => 'Town/City',
  'administrative_area' => 'County',
  'postal_code' => 'Postcode',
)

我相信这是最干净的解决方案，不使用任何突变或不熟悉的类。

<?php

function flatten($array)
{
    return array_reduce($array, function($acc, $item){
        return array_merge($acc, is_array($item) ? flatten($item) : [$item]);
    }, []);
}


// usage
$array = [1, 2, [3, 4], [5, [6, 7]], 8, 9, 10];
print_r(flatten($array));

扁平化数组的Laravel助手是Arr::flatten()

非递归，非基于引用的实现，这可能比基于递归的实现更容易理解。 可以管理任意深度多维数组，不能平化关联数组。 它的工作原理是每个周期将数组压平一层，直到它完全有效。

function array_flatten(): array{
    $result = func_get_args();
    // check all elements of $list are not arrays
    $_is_flat = function (array $list): bool {
        foreach ($list as $val) {
            if (is_array($val)) {
                return false;
            }
        }
        return true;
    };
    do {
        $tmp = [];
        foreach ($result as $val) {
            if (is_array($val)) {
                if (!array_is_list($val)) {
                    throw new \Exception(sprintf("array_flatten can't handle associative arrays: %s", json_encode($val)));
                }
                $tmp = array_merge($tmp, $val);
            } else {
                $tmp[] = $val;
            }
        }
        $result = $tmp;
    } while (!$_is_flat($result));
    return $result;
}

以下是它处理的情况:

assertEquals(array_flatten(1, 2), $expected = [1, 2], 'array_flatten 1a');
assertEquals(array_flatten([1], [2]), $expected = [1, 2], 'array_flatten 1b');
assertEquals(array_flatten([1], [[2], 3]), $expected = [1, 2, 3], 'array_flatten 1c');
assertEquals(array_flatten(1, [2, 3], [4, 5]), $expected = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'array_flatten 2');
assertEquals(array_flatten(2, 3, [4, 5], [6, 7], 8), $expected = [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], 'array_flatten 3');
assertEquals(array_flatten([2, 3, [4, 5], [6, 7], 8]), $expected = [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], 'array_flatten 4');
assertEquals(array_flatten([2, [3, [4, [5]], [6, [7]], 8]]), $expected = [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], 'array_flatten complex');
